notempty
The serial number and zero-touch PIN are shown in advance on the invoice when ordering via Securepoint

One day after the hardware has been shipped, the invoice will be available for download in the Reseller Portal under the menu Resellerportal Invoices  zum ‍Download.

The serial number and zero-touch PIN can be found here.



Order

The information for the configuration of a zero-touch UTM is communicated in advance with the invoice.
This allows a zero-touch profile to be created in advance with all the necessary details.

  • Initially, this is only possible for orders for purchase devices directly from Securepoint Sales.
  • Orders placed with other distributors cannot yet be delivered with zero-touch information.
    • In addition to a license and a configuration file, the ‘’'serial number'‘’ and the ‘’'Zero-Touch PIN'‘’ are required to create a zero-touch profile in the Unified Security Console (USC).

      This information is sent with the invoice and the delivery note.
      The delivery bill is enclosed with the device.

    Create zero-touch configuration

    • A profile for this UTM can then be created in the Unified Security Portal (USP) in the Unified Security Console UTM Zero-Touch  menu using the  Add profile button.
    • The UTM now only requires an IP address on interface A0 via DHCP and access to the Internet for commissioning.
    • After a few minutes (approx. 3 minutes) and 2(!) restarts, the UTM is ready for use with the configuration created.

    Introduction

    With the zero-touch functionality of the UTM, it is possible to make the UTM operational immediately after unpacking and connecting it to a network without manual configuration.
    The UTM is automatically configured and licensed as soon as it connects to the Unified Security Portal. It is also possible to transfer the configuration file from another UTM to the new UTM.

    Process

    1. UTM: When the UTM is booted for the first time with factory settings (no configuration, no host name), an 8-digit enrollment PIN and a serial number are generated.
    2. Portal: A new zero-touch profile must be created in the portal.
      1. The serial number and enrollment PIN must be entered in the zero-touch profile.
      2. A web session PIN must be entered.
      3. A UTM license must be stored in the zero-touch profile.
      4. Optional: Store a configuration file for a UTM in the zero-touch profile
    notempty
    The following processes happen automatically without you having to do anything yourself.
    1. Portal: If the serial number and enrollment PIN of the UTM match the zero-touch profile from the portal, the UTM is assigned to the tenant at  Unified Security Console UTMs
      1. UTM: The license from the zero-touch profile is transferred to the UTM, applied, and then the UTM reboots.
      2. UTM: Optional: The configuration stored in the zero-touch profile is installed on the UTM and the UTM reboots.
    The UTM is configured and ready for use.

    Generating the UTM enrollment PIN

    UTM screen console during initial or new installation of a UTM
    • When booting for the first time with the UTM's factory settings, an 8-digit enrollment PIN is generated
    • This enrollment PIN and the UTM's serial number are displayed on the UTM screen console
    • The QR code on the UTM screen console is used by Securepoint's shipping department to transmit the serial number and PIN in advance via the delivery note
    • After a short moment (~ 1 min.), the IP address and gateway of the UTM are also displayed notempty
      New as of v14.0.1
    • If the UTM is a virtual machine (VM) or older hardware, a one-time serial number beginning with ZT is generated.
      This serial number is displayed using the CLI command "system info".
    • All other UTM models use their existing serial number, which is stored on the UTM
  • If the UTM is reset to its factory settings"", a new enrollment PIN is generated when it is started up.
